And we have to ask questions about a legal system that refuses to hear new evidence - turning a blind-eye on the new evidence. So, we have to take to the streets to wake people up. The people will understand the urgency," Haqq told the AmNews.

SEYMOUR -- The ongoing investigation into a town police officer's fatal shooting of an Oxford optometrist must answer a question central to law enforcement: whether the use of deadly force was appropriate. Several law enforcement experts say police Officer Patrick Giglio was justified in using deadly force in shooting optometrist Dennis Kissel June 4, if Giglio thought his life or that of the people around him were in danger.

While I'm munching away, the waiter asks if everything's all right. Skittish, I ask, "This burger's $5, yeah?" It is. Also, it's Wednesday. I order a basil lemo...
